so uh it should only be smart only happy occasions and we're back with a very very special guest for everybody and we're going to be discussing tonight the revolution of hasirus which is uh sounding very very exciting but before we get to the topic Roberta a very very dear friend and I'm so excited the rabbi's with us could you just tell the oil in the world a little bit about yourself and about the Holy work of Mickey you say that you're involved with before I talk about myself let me just talk about you for a minute it's such a similar of the whole family when you have a simulator we're all happy and I was thinking that you know it's a spider dick Moses and you named your baby Iron lay partially after evalux Steinman so you got the literature and despite them so we gotta talk about so see this you know we can't leave we already had a hand in establishing 95 mcvise you know of the mixer and and viruses Hashem that we helped out a little and that's luck over there about Hashem we all know about and it's great to be able to be part of it and to be uh to be you know get new friends and new suits them and new partners and spreading to hiring quality so and uh it's wonderful but Hashem okay beautiful yes I know very well that uh not were you not that you make video say helped a little bit if it wasn't for me USA then mickville would still not be ready so we're forever grateful for that but not only that Community but all communities I know that many communities have told me that it wasn't for McPherson they would not have a makeup in their community so cloudy so the Jewish people everyone should be very thankful to you and do your entire amazing staff and and team and make videos say that do unbelievable well is that to show we're going to have a whole class of fusion tour talking magician with the rabbi about Tara about Mikvah but tonight as we said the topic is Revolution what did Casitas revolutionize Rabbi let's jump into it you know it's a great question I want to tell you a story it was a new saline it was a Hasidic too his name was not a sandwich his name was and there was a literacy Eid also a great man in Islam he took about like a couple of greatest people that Jerusalem had to offer his name is Revel tragic and one time he's going walking down the street and he meets them not to save it and he says before hasidus the Canadian was empty the paradise was empty there was no Sadiq in there what happened before the receding came around like what it hasidis really what did they what was the lose in hasidus so he says like this before hasidus came around the Canadian wasn't empty but rasidis came and gave it a good schmuck he gave the Canadian against Schmucks they put in a schmuck into things that was one of the main things the main messages of casidis to serve Hashem with simcha to put in the simsa and avoid this Hashem into Villa everything to have a upbeat positive attitude you know I'm reminding myself now that the Tanya says that if someone is not only if he's in the middle of davening and he gets like thoughts that you know you sinned and you did this and you did that not only because the middle of divine learning even if it's a middle of a business deal and it comes into such thoughts of our various he should know that that's the eight Sahara yet our eyes is into that and and that's the Cedars because see this is to try to bring in the avoidance into life be happy be happy with your Shabbos be happy with your caduceu with whatever we have we should be happy and don't focus on the downside of things now because see this really is like I would say maybe there's like a two-pronged thing because we find it by the valcenter he had like the greatest coming of the greatest that it was in the generation and they were into the Kabbalah as we see in this for him many uh like focused on Kabbalah and part of the message of course even says to bring Kabbalah into everyday life I mean it's not only the concepts of learning Kabbalah which uh many places learned it but even people that don't learn Kabbalah is certain things of Kabab foreign like even some of that's Anonymous but he knows like you know everybody will ask every boy you'll ask because I see the boy is something that's neatitis you know the Sparks of godliness that there is in the food that we have you know there's certain Concepts that we did well Santa brought into everybody life even for plain people and so it's really a two-pronged revolution there was a revolution of the the the greats of the Hasidic Masters that was uh massive that you know it became like a real Revolution from the balcantov and the afros and Margate will speak later maybe a little about it and then there was for the masses the masses were introduced to a new type of avoid the to to know no one ever spoke to them how how worthy they are how should there are that everyone has their nishama everyone have this Soul everyone has a fire burning in their hearts and even if you're you know you're not the Thomas And even if you're worse than that even if you're someone that you know felt Falls in sometimes to the ETC you have a good in you and you got to keep it up and don't get fooled don't get to Broken by yourself don't get broken don't let that it's her break you and that's probably one of the greatest things that Casitas brought in but really uh you know when I was asked this book you know we were speaking about the topic of the casino is such a broad it's like ask yourself and you know talk about medicine you know so I think tonight we'll try to focus more on the Polish I see this the Poland the hasidus of Poland you know we're talking about the great masters of the belshant if you look into the hakadama into the preface of a savior from the Magid of misery was like the the main parliament of the placenta the disciple of the basant that they really took over his place and if you you look at the academic day he has atonement a great helmet in his own right and he writes his conversations that he had with the magida the Magi told him how the basantis knew he knew all the things from the Ari of how he understood the language of the birds he understood the language of the trees he had gileo yelio used to be magal himself to him and and these were you know great great people so the the talmud asked about Shem asked the magadiv asked his Rich so so you told me Ravi that if Hashem taught you everything so you should also be able to notice he says I should rabbit the screen stopped for a second are you still there rabbi yes I'm here we hear you Rabbi yeah we hear you but we don't see you perfect so what I mean to say is that it's like the really it was a revolution for the great and a revolution for the masses I mean today we'll focus on the Casitas in Poland so rabbit maybe you can familiarize us with some of the leaders of the Hasidic uh community in Poland yeah so really it went like this it was about Center it wasn't that many students but the one that really was like uh took over the teaching and establishing the new students and to the next generation was the magnet of Ms Rich the magnet of Madrid I remember who one of the Sadiq and said that the sinner went from mesbridge to misrich that means that he took over the leadership of the hasidus he made them and one of you hear me we hear you Rabbi yeah but uh the screen once again he's working on it um one of the town meeting was called Legends which um he probably heard of the name of everyone goes them and his favorite medical events was like you know he was considered one of the greatest comedian of the Miss Richard maggot and by and he had many students one of his students was the khiza of Lublin now the rabbis of the Next Generation in Poland and Galicia which is also like next upon it was were his thumb even were his disciples I'm talking about the Rapture and of all types you know they were all his comedian and he had a talmud that was called The Holy Jew he was called and he even started to lead a following when his Rebel was still living when the Heiser of Lublin was still liberal now the place of labelin himself was the reason why he's called faiza is because he was able to see his he was able to see in very far places he said Mustafa Island about sci-fi so in he was like revert you know they used to say that in Galicia he was like moisture avenu you know what I mean he was like looked up to it he started uh leadership of his own disciples he started when his gravity was still living even that means he was like one of the greatest comedian of the khiza blue he had a student called the rebrunam of pushes and our main focus tonight will be on him just to get an idea of those that know a little of playlists of the Poland facilities in Poland they the was his disciple his talmud the fiduciary of gear was his Parliament the the Alexander Alexander was his town at rabbitical worker these are all dynasties that you know came out from these are all his students the greatest dynasties in Poland are his students and more or less will focus on the riverabunum of precious tonight yeah um the reason is set on them just we should get an idea who we're talking about there isn't a set on him that he was younger than than all of the students but he was greater than all the students of the Kaiser so we're talking about like you know real I don't think it was much Magnus on had much snagness there was a much opponents there were many opponents to the way of the system there was a certain Lunas in his he was like there was an original uh an original way of thinking an original way of serving Hashem they have a bunnymouth himself really was a he was a cipher they used to say that between the suffering he was a merchant he was a pharmacist um they used to say between the business people he's accused and between the Sid them is a cipher so you know he had like he was a worldly and he his main yeah he was he was very very revered in uh so Rabbi vashuski what was the the message that Pacifica tried to convey like what was his main uh message okay it's hard to say uh to pinpoint it first of all let's talk about the verbum a little more for a minute his comment was comes out of revitsaka worker was his talmud and someone once asked him what are you so busy with your Rebel like you know you make him like you know what do you he said I have to tell you something internet we see that eliola now became to to Elisa he was like a farm he was he was someone that had the Hamas he had animals and uh he had a farm and he was busy with his animals like a shepherd and Alicia and eliola Navi came and took his cloak with zadarius and threw it on Alicia and all of a sudden Alicia he took his not and he took his behemoths and he chested his name as he slaughtered the Bahamas and he gave it out to the towns people he took the calim that he had and he went and burned the farm the farm uh utensils he burned them that's what it says and then he took the meat and he gave it out to all the towns people and he ran after ldo and Elio is asking him now love what did I do to you so he answers them CeCe look he says what do you mean what is it he ran to his parents and he said goodbye to his parents and he ran after ldo and that's how it was to Elio went and the only one he was like and he got a double portion of spirituality when he saw a Leo and Avi going to heaven desirableka that's how when he took his his talmud when he took a plain person's hand into his hand that man had a total change in his in his life he had a total change he lit a fire in his heart he was ready you know he was ready to kiss Hashem he got so the person got so inflamed with the having sashem that he went to look for Hashem wherever he could that was that that was there Abraham he was able to bring in a fire in people's hearts to have ladies Hashem and when they asked David what is who he had a friend of each of the worka that was a great man but he was a snug at the terrible he was an opponent to the new uh revolution in Portland hasidis and he used to talk badly on maybe it's like a work another answer then even though he was a student of so it would have been like you know he should have answered and stuck up for his rebbe he never stuck up for Israeli and they asked him if he took a burqa why didn't he stick up how could you be quiet when he's embarrassing and insulting a rubbish he says I gotta tell you a story what happened I was once on the road and a guy passes by and he looks me in the face and he looks and looks and looks and I'm looking at him what are you looking at and he doesn't answer me he goes further all of a sudden from the same direction someone else comes running and he looks at me and he looks and looks and looks and then he gives a scream to the guy it's him it's him and okay I don't know what to do then all of a sudden a lady comes running a lady with some other people and she says yeah yeah it's him it's him it's my husband so they started cursing me because this lady's husband left her for many years and she was an aguna she was alone and they it was so many years that he had some similarity in his face to this uh to this person and they started cursing him you rush uh you live alone your wife and they started hitting him and cursing him and they brought him to the road he should give the guess he says did I have any kindness did I have anything in my heart against all these people I knew that it's a mistaken identity I didn't they the them it's embarrassing someone else they don't know that it's a mistaken identity so he says when they talk on my rabbit it's a mistaken identity it's been that Expo they don't know him so that was that was their baboon and someone that it was possible not to know now that we could say that maybe the hasidus of was to use all their capabilities use all your your wisdom you usually if you have you know uh commemorship people will serve Hashem they were just the opposite the common were the most corruptured why because they used all the hathmas don't be you know everyone has their Hoffman you know it doesn't turn the radio it says that there's someone I think that Ibrahim says this uh this thing that he met a person and the person said anything we told the person one two one tell you he says I don't have any wisdom I don't have coffee I don't understand but she said what do you do for a living He said I'm a fisherman I I go for I catch fish how do you make your nets what do you mean how actually shows them how you make a net and how you just and what else do you do how do you know when to throw down the the net and so on and so on is trying to tell him that each of us has his capabilities we just lazy to use it for avoid this Hashem and our way to do things is to use your greatest to reach Communists that means we have to realize this that means the plane uh accepting being straight a common being whole is not a contradicting crossword just the opposite the more a person is uses the more common he is he's more accepting of hashem's will that was use all your cohes all your potential all your strengths used to serve Hashem and you should come to such a madrega to realize that only Hashem is the one that makes a difference that being poor and being rich should be the same by you to be have honor and have embarrassment and insult meaning should be the same by you and to have pain and to be at peace should also be the same at you that was just come to my dragon to be so common to you to be so clear by yourself that Hashem is the one that does the best for you you should have such a Clarity in that that you should be able to have common theme I think that that's part of what's of what shisha is all about unbelievable wow amazing unbelievable did all the tummy then all the students of Pacifica go on the same path like they're they're ready no you have to understand that I'm just uh that was uh like the worst thing you could say that you gotta be like this means literally that don't don't uh make yourself I believe dessert don't make uh now if that's that's what they used to say if you tell someone you gotta do this you have to dive in like this you got to learn like this you have to do assess it like this that's making a form of a person you're abolishing your individuality that was the opposite of just the world that everyone has to find himself in find their own death and avoid this Hashem that means that when they came to Francisco when they came to the rebel the thing was uh B magala revealed what's inside me help me rabbit to take off that dirt that's covering my soul but that when the my soul my soul is my soul and your soul is your soul you know wise man once said life's so short don't lick someone else's life was to be individuality they used to say that eggs of a chicken look all the same but Stones uh when you come to Diamonds each one has you'll ask that Maven he'll be able to tell you right away you know which one is like this that they're not the same we're diamonds we're not chicken eggs we gotta we have to realize that that that this laptop just for us there were people that used to dive in quietly and the people that used to that Scream by davony there were people that used to learn the Ian you know in depth and people that used to learn the kids and there were people that learned more and and were Isaac Moore and Tila in prayer and then there were people that uh well I said more entire you know there was no uh there wasn't a form that you had to follow every person had his own way and that's when we look at them you could see it so clearly the cutscareba was like the extremist of the extremist probably about all the rabbits he was like the extreme he used to say that horses walk in the middle the men walk on the side if you want to be if you want to walk in the middle and not be an extremist you're a horse you're a person that wants to get somewhere he was an extremist he said that you have to climb and and push yourself all till the end he used to say that's why because if someone would like it even a little not him it was a problem it was a major problem in cost now worker which is a bitco worker and he was best buddies with the cops could have the best best bodies I have a Cicero loving the Jews and they were best buddies you know the cutscare ever once came by the outside of rabuna Matrix so he came to Trista to be at the caver and he went he went out and he meets his friend ravitza and he tells him it's a you know that I'm not a cavery I'm not someone that comes to Graves you know why I came I came here to meet you and there were such good friends with such different ways and avoid the sashem and then you have uh again was tired that was the main thing in the Toyota and there was yes a middle way they tried you know they were they used to be my card of everyone gay was a much larger cut Cuts was just the opposite they chased away people kotsuki really if someone that wasn't Cuts they used to chase away people yeah it was not like that guy was more like the regular and it was Toyota and so everyone had their own mahalas in interest if I may say if I tell you he says it says it was a war of medium and moisture of any said how much you have to give Hashem said you have to give one out of 50 your calls and one out of 500 everything to the mission to them and to them and then there were people but you know okay I gained some stuff at the war so you know what I'm gonna do I'm gonna be monitor to the base of miktas is they took from the Harem and they some held more from themselves ish like they didn't look at the other people how much the other one gave is Loy every person had his own he had his own husband his own way of making a decision how much sadaki he should give he didn't look how much the other person is doing and that's sister be yourself you know but you used to make fun if someone was dabbing like uh you know loud or something and they felt that it wasn't listening it wasn't totally truthful that was the worst thing you had to be truthful you could do whatever you want as long as you mean it seriously you don't do it to flout and to and you know to be uh uh you know to just show people they used to say like this if someone is in the if someone's drowning yeah if someone's drowning so what does he do he waves his hand and he screams does anyone have anything any kindness anyone say hey what are you doing no everyone understands it but if someone's standing on the beach and they'll do the same thing they'll say hey mister you're off your Rockets what are you doing the same thing is like that if someone feels in pillar that he's that he is it's burning in his eye and he screams and he and he and he does you know that wants a story with the Envision they used to dive in quietly and someone once came to install him it was Carlene they used to stop and loud and scream and someone once came like Wednesday he walks into the church and he says listen I don't have way to Daven I want to come down and Shop it's by you but I have to scream because my Rabbi and Stalin they Scream by The Happening and I know that by you and in your shoe they don't scream I just want to ask permissions so to try to cover episode no I don't give you permission you can't scream and shoot and then what happened to me is this was a good person and he came to Sue with the intention of being quiet the whole Avenue but in Middle account to nishmas and he started screaming and then afterwards he got scared because the charcoal is a great person and he only let him come he told him that he can't Scream by Damian so after Chavez he goes into the truck with him and he says I wanna I wanna ask for forgiveness so he says what's the problem he said because I screamed by the Avenue if you come Wednesday and you say You're Gonna Scream by davening Shabbos that's not okay but if you come Sabbath that means it's the scream comes out of you it's natural then it's fine but don't come Wednesday and and you know say the Trap Is Not Gonna Come and scream don't make an appointment was the main thing that you got to be truthful and I'll just add one thing if you give me the two three minutes let me just add one thing there was a great focus on the truthfully at all khasidism had this focus on simula was very very focused on simranal okay there's a story that someone he was a side he was a merchant and uh he was once by a ship and they were loading the ship and a guy slipped off the ramp and he slipped into the ocean and it was there a little stormy and he was drowning the guy was drowning and everyone was standing on the on the on the beach on the by the by the pier yeah he was standing there uh you send regards to the leviason to the great fish don't forget send regards them when you go and everyone started laughing but then they started being serious but then the guy all of a sudden they saw the guy caught on to a piece of wood and he saved himself what did he do what is it he said I saw that this demon is this guy is drowning is something that takes away the dean amount of person the the the judgments on a person the bad judgments on a person Sinister takes it away and it was once a sick person that came through and he told them you know my son is so sick he's someone there Alexander ever came my son is so sick I I all the doctors are giving up on him so he said I don't have an answer for you I don't have advice for you I don't have this one thing I can tell you that will help if you'll be the Sims then it will help so he went out and he bought vodka and bourbon and what else this scotch and and he bought meat and he came he took together a bunch of hasidim and they made a big suit and they were all happy and the guy writes in the distance of his young girl that my son had a report because that's going to give them and you know what he said even this is a bomb he says how come we see that you know the from is they don't have so much like the like the plane like the harmonium like the amiratsam like the ignoramus and the ones that aren't so holy slowly why do we see that he says you know why because they're more simple even though they're not so airlift they're not so uh holy like the like the city but as you see them because they're so entered avoid is a shame they forget to be the simsa and that's why they don't have rhinocer so much if they would have more similar then they would have more panelsa so I guess it's a it's a great thing it's also not from Dera bread from the green he says that the person says after the sin of the eagle they said they didn't put the crowns on their head clients rolled off their crowns and they were warning so he says the River from a bleed that was the main angle the main thing was that afterwards they lost their faith in themselves they didn't realize they still have a crown they forgot that I still have a crown I still have I'm still I'm still not worthless and that was the main sin that got them down it was after the ego was the main sin amazing I love this topic of civil Club happiness and even though we have to always serve Hashem with happiness and the time is getting a little bit late Rabbi so we're gonna jump into the last and final question which is a final message rabbi to put it all together to sum it all together of uh of tonight's topic or in general for our broader audience every time so I'll sum it up maybe with this and then we'll just say one more thing about Machias and it's over 60 Seconds says which is Poland Poland what's the license like the two worst things that you know till today those are the two main challenges that we could say is kadusha andamuna but someone fell into that he's says he says he says is a lotion of tatir when we say kosher um tying up and on time the Lysa suru your afraid of Afghan you fell into this you fell into clearer don't untie The Knack that you have with Hashem don't get untied from Hashem you got to keep the castle keep that Caster with Hassan and then we'll just finalize with a vote about mashiach that Abraham said that he could have you have to understand what went on and just the day it was a holy Factory it's just him with his tell me then there was a fire like you know the seduce the first Gary rabbit says all the rabbits were appears on on on the balsamto from all the rabbits are going to be appears that means it was a real fire and their baboon said I could bring mashiach but I don't want other tadiq him to feel bad they're going to say who brought you I don't want you to feel bad that's why I'm not bringing me sorry if Aaron kotler once asked hey is that he's not gonna bring him a shift because someone's gonna feel bad a little to the husted anthem I don't know what you want Russia said Hashem is telling him go take the Jews out of him it's Ryan they're in a terrible suffering mushroom said no no I'm not going send someone else what do you mean go and run and take the Jews out of its rhyme you don't triple your brother don't [Music] um in the future in the the timely Tuesday tour talks and we obviously have the rabbi every Thursday and also Timeless tidbits and many other
